Scour Depth Calculation: Founding Level, Formation Level Calculation

The document calculates scour depths and formation levels for a proposed bridge site. Key details include: - Design discharge is 11,169.6 cumecs - Mean maximum scour depth is 19.184m - Minimum founding level for abutment is 102.043m - 24.364m = 77.679m - Minimum founding level for pier is 102.043m - 38.369m = 63.674m - Recommended formation level is 106.610m
